I would be cautious in doing this, first you do not want the DWP to be confused as to which forms to use for this assessment, secondly, these forms related to how your child was when they were last assessed, whilst this could be to your advantage, it could also be to your disadvantage, whilst they are evidence in the broader sense they may not be see as such in a narrower view.

My friend filled them in also for her son and highlighted the bits about not needing to fill in the relevant sections if nothing had changed. I think she sent a covering letter pointing out this. She got a reply after about a month and hers is an indefinite award at the same rates also. So we both did it different ways and got the same result.
